Employees at Lightolier, a Fall River lighting company in the Airport Industrial Park with over 600 employees, participated in its second company-wide health fair held on October 7, 2009 in the company cafeteria. Workers could get their blood pressure checked, get their body fat analyzed, get a bone density scan from Coastal Orthopaedics, or have a free massage courtesy of Eternity Massage and Day Spa in Swansea. "We get a terrific response from our employees," commented occupational therapist Mary Dunn. "They're really interested in what they can do to improve their health status," she added. Lightolier has been a leader in bringing health resources to the worksite. Click here, here, and here to see some of the things the company has done.
